What Kind of Network is Right for Me?
Now that you've decided to start a network, it's time to decide what kind of network best suits your networking needs.

Basically, there are two kinds of networks, wired and wireless. The most basic difference is that wired networks communicate through data cables, while wireless networks communicate through radio signals.

Wired networks have been around for decades. By far the most common wired networking technology found today is known as Ethernet. The data cables, known as Ethernet network cables or Cat 5 cables, connect the computers and other devices that make up the networks.

Wireless networks are relatively new. They don't use cables for connections; instead, they use radio waves, like cordless phones.

• Freedom - work anywhere.
• Quick, effortless installation.
• No cables to buy.
• Save cabling time and hassle in hard to reach areas.
• Easy to expand.

Wireless networks are rapidly becoming more popular and coming down in price. Since they don't require cables, you can use the devices anywhere in an office or home, even out on the patio. There's no need to roll out an Ethernet network cable to each room of a house; you can network anywhere—without wires. Outside of the home, wireless networking is available in hotspots at coffee shops, businesses, airports—great when you're on the road and need to get some work done. For convenience, wireless networking is the answer.

There are 3 standards for wireless connectivity. 802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11g. There are considerable differences between them. Click here for comparison chart.

• Lower cost.

• Longer possible range with cabling.
• Security

Wired networks have been around for years. They use the most affordable products and provide the fastest speeds of transmission. The distance between devices, such as computers, on a network is also much less restricted in wired networking—up to 300 feet with Cat 5 Ethernet cables or 1,800 feet using fiber optics. When you need to move large amounts of data at high speeds, such as professional-quality multimedia, wired networking is the most efficient way to do it. 

Tech Tronix recommends a gigabit network backbone for corporate offices or home offices where data transfer and file sharing are common. To achieve these blistering speeds a basic office network requires a Gigabit Switch, Gigabit Network adapters for each computer and at least Cat5e cabling standard.
